Firefighting Training Center eyed for Lawton Fort Sill site
Lawton and Fort Sill officials propose a joint fire fighting training center on post with potential operation next year pending Army approval. The plan calls for about 50 000 to 75 000 dollars initial cost with roughly 25 000 dollars from each party and shared ongoing costs. Land ownership would stay with the federal government with possible reallocation later for military needs. Gene Walker cites study of post areas and a required master plan. A city survey shows local land unfit for training. See FIRE CENTER Page 4 Col.
